Sharing and Celebrating Stories

Nearly 70 years after Executive Order 9066 forced 250 California State University students to leave their campuses without completing their degrees, several former students' stories will be brought to light through a video project titled The California State University: Sharing and Celebrating Stories from Nisei Honorary Degree Recipients.

The production and dissemination of the stories is funded by a $23,000 grant to the CSU Chancellor's Office from the California State Library through the California Civil Liberties Public Education Program. If you are interested in attending a screening, please see the schedule above. Additional screenings will be announced as they are scheduled and the videos will be made available online at a later date.
